SUMMARY:Blue Christmas
DESCRIPTION:Christmas is a holy time that is not always happy. It brings up so many memories that heighten our feelings of grief or sadness\, pain or loneliness. This is a service of quiet reflection\, remembrance and peace. We hope that this service will bring a sense of peace in this sacred season with quiet music\, scripture\, silence and candle light. Everyone is welcome.
